New Delhi – Congress leader Rashid Alvi has threatened that there will be civil war in India if Hindu groups keep demanding the demolition of illegally constructed mosques. He was referring to the recent protests in Uttarkashi against a mosque under construction.
He claimed that while Hindu temples are being built in Muslim countries, mosques are being targeted in India. (While temples are being built in Islamic countries, temples are attacked by fanatic Muslims in India, religious processions of Hindus are attacked at mosques, why does Alvi not open his mouth about it ? – Editor) He threatened, “This cannot go on for long without repercussions. Such actions are pushing the country toward civil war.”

Rashid Alvi also threatened the BJP, saying that it will not remain in power forever. He said that it is “crucial to protect both mosques and temples,” hinting that if Congress comes to power, Hindu temples will be targeted. “It is the government’s responsibility to safeguard all religious sites,” Alvi added.
He said, “I feel disappointed and troubled by this growing trend of hostility towards mosques under BJP governments. Everywhere we hear about calls to demolish mosques.” (During the BJP government, the power to oppose illegal mosques has been created among law-abiding citizens. Alvi admits that they could not have dared during the rule of Congress and other parties ! – Editor)
While Hindus in Uttarkashi are protesting against the construction of a mosque deemed legal by authorities, all other protests are against the construction of illegal mosques, most of which are on encroached plots.
Notably in Shimla’s Sanjauli where the largest such protest took place, the Muslims have agreed to demolish a mosque themselves after agreeing that it is an illegal construction.
